Day Twenty-One

Viernes!
Expect with Viernes, comes an early start at school and a test. However, JuanCarlos was very chill about the test and took it more like a chance to practice rather than a mandatory exam. I think he is one of my favorite teachers so far. In conversation, we got to play telephone which was also very fun, thank you Diana.
After school today, we headed over to the Oncology unit in a hospital in Lima. Here, we spent time with kids our age, but who were enduring unthinkable circumstances. Of course, it was depressing, but it was also fun to just hang out, talk and laugh for an hour. I admire how strong they all were, but also understand they're just normal kids like us who just want a chance at a regular life. For example, we compared our lives in the different cities, sang "Despacito" and even bonded over our mutual love of Rubix cubes. All in all, we got to make new friends who we can now talk to over Facebook.
I walked home from Parque Kennedy and took a necessary nap. I may have spent a bit too much time solving my newly acquired Rubix cube over and over again, but I was able to finish my homework. Now, I am getting ready to head to Larcomar to practice the salsa moves we learned on Wednesday. Ciao!
